(warning: graphic descriptions of broken bones and unnatural body contortion)

Bai Sheng’s first reaction was that the name Su Jiqiao was very familiar, and he immediately recalled it.

In the experimental accident in Qinghai three years ago, apart from Fu Chen who died on the spot, there was also an A-level evolutionary who was seriously injured by the explosion. It was Su Jiqiao who was lying unconscious in the hospital.

“My God… my God,” Chen Miao stammered, “Brother Fu and Senior Su also came to this health center three years ago? Why?”

At the door of the ward, Fu Chen glanced at Su Jiqiao: “Not really, why is Shen Zhuo angry?”

Su Jiqiao replied softly: “I don’t know, but I always feel that Senior Shen doesn’t like me very much. I don’t know if there are some things I usually do not do well enough?”

Su Jiqiao is probably the only person Bai Sheng has ever met who can match Shen Zhuo in appearance. But the difference is that Shen Zhuo is used to being looked up to by others, and his superior aura is really too strong, that kind of stern beauty makes people daunting; Su Jiqiao has curved eyebrows and eyes, slightly curly hair, with a gentle temperament like water, and radiant beauty. From the appearance, he has a strong affinity, and even speaks with a smile at the end of his voice.

“However, if you think about it, you can understand that if it wasn’t because of luck that we evolved, most of us would not even be qualified to say a word to people like Senior Shen in this life, let alone please him.”

“…” Bai Sheng glanced at Shen Zhuo with a cold face, turned his head and asked Chen Miao in a low voice: “Has your Senior Su always spoken in this way?”

Chen Miao was still immersed in the great surprise of why these two people came to visit “Mr. Rong” in this hospital three years ago, he stammered and asked, “What, what way?”

Bai Sheng was silent for two seconds, and said implicitly, “The fragrance of tea is overflowing.”

“The fragrance of tea? What kind of tea fragrance?” Chen Miao was baffled, “Senior Su has a very good temper, warm-hearted, considerate and understanding. He was super popular in the research institute back then, what’s the matter?”

Bai Sheng understood.

Bai Sheng leaned into Chen Miao’s ear with a dazed face, lowered his voice and humiliated him gently: “If I were to guide your master’s thesis defense, I would also have to take antihypertensive drugs…”

“Shen Zhuo’s attitude towards people will basically not change because the other party is doing well or not. Most people in this world are the same in front of him. I suggest you stop trying.”

Fu Chen looked back at the shapeless figure on the hospital bed, was silent for a moment, and suddenly said, “But there is one thing I’m still curious about.”

“What?”

Fu Chen said slowly: “I was thinking, if Shen Zhuo saw this person after meditating, what would be his first reaction… have a slight liking for it, but to endure? Or just throwing it away like a shoe, too lazy to take care of it?”

Su Jiqiao laughed, with a harmless, kind and gentle appearance, but was interrupted before he could say anything.

“Forget it, let’s go.” Fu Chen looked at the time again and said, “Shen Zhuo is still waiting at the airport for us to leave for Qinghai tonight. I don’t want Shen Zhuo to wait too long.”

Instantly, as if enlightened, Bai Sheng realized one thing from Fu Chen’s words.

Three years ago, Fu Chen and Su Jiqiao came to the Quanshan County Health Center, which happened to happen the day before the Qinghai explosion, which meant that Fu Chen died 24 hours after watching Rong Qi!

But why?

Why did two high-level evolutionists come to see Rong Qi? What is the relationship between them and this Rong?

Su Jiqiao looked sideways at Fu Chen from the tip of his eyes, half joking and half sighing: “I’m really envious, Brother Fu really cares about Senior Shen.”

Fu Chen turned and walked out, and calmly replied: “Shouldn’t the one who pursues be very caring?”

Su Jiqiao took a few steps to catch up with him, and said with a smile, “That’s why I’m envious. Oh, yes, let’s say…”

Only one random time retrospective can be performed in one place, and the scene and scope are extremely limited. Seeing that the two of them were going out of range,

Shen Zhuo turned to Witch Italdo, her usual calm tone had changed a bit: “Follow, don’t lose these two!”

The witch couldn’t resist his order, but before she could react, she looked at her feet as if she had been shocked by electricity.

A vine suddenly burst out of the ground, entwining her whole body tightly from the ankle.

Immediately after, countless vines rose up on the ground, and one of them broke open to reveal the person inside, which turned out to be Noda Yoko!

The scene three years ago disappeared in an instant, and the scorched and dilapidated ward was restored before their eyes. Yoko held the Italdo Witch and retreated to the corner like lightning, and sneered: “I really didn’t think you would have time to go back to this trick.”

Chen Miao lost his voice: “Sister!”

Yoko put a knife on the witch’s throat: “Why do you have a bug-level existence, why do you obey a lowly human being?”

Before the Italdo Witch could sneer back, she saw a cold flash of several ice arrows, shooting at Yoko in the air, which was the very quick reaction of Chen Miao.

But sooner or later, a dark space crack appeared instantly, swallowing Frostbolt silently.

Immediately afterwards, the space rift quickly extended towards Yoko, seeing that she was about to kidnap the witch and run away!

It all happened so quickly that the four outside inspectors didn’t even have time to rush through the door. In the blink of an eye, Shen Zhuo was about to step forward, but Bai Sheng held him down with his hands: “What are you going to do?”

“Italdo Witch will cause great trouble if she is out of supervision, she cannot be let go!”

Bai Sheng really took the bait: “She ran away! At most, there will be some trouble. If you die, humans will start a war with evolutionists in minutes. Come back!”

As soon as the words were finished, Shen Zhuo retreated half a step and patted Bai Sheng on the shoulder: “You are right, you should go.”

“…” Bai Sheng was shocked: “You did it on purpose, right! You made up your mind a long time ago to use me like this without spending a penny of salary, right!!”

Shen Zhuo calmly ordered: “Stop Noda Yoko for me!”

Bai Sheng thought to himself that the last teaching of Zhang Wuji’s mother was indeed true, the more beautiful a person is, the more likely they are to deceive others, but it was too late for self-examination. The crack in the space is dark and deep, and they don’t know where the other end leads to. Seeing that it was about to swallow Noda Yoko and Italdo Witch, Bai Sheng seemed to disappear in place, and when he reappeared, he was approaching Yoko’s face. At some point, a long knife burning with raging flames appeared in his hand, chopping at tentacle-like vines—

Unexpectedly, at this moment, a strange look crossed Yoko’s face.

At the same moment, the space rift suddenly bypassed Yoko, brushed past Bai Sheng, and rushed straight to Shen Zhuo who was alone.

Tune the tiger away from the mountain!1

Bai Sheng’s complexion changed in an instant, and he turned around and rushed towards Shen Zhuo, but it was already too late.

Liu Sanji poked half of his body out of the black hole, grabbed Shen Zhuo who was caught off guard, and dragged him in suddenly!

In the next second, the space healed and the cracks disappeared.

In the last scene of staying in the ward, countless tentacles clung to Shen Zhuo, quickly pulling him into the darkness, while Liu Sanji showed an undisguised malicious smile at Bai Sheng.

“Senior!” Chen Miao exclaimed before landing.

With a whistling gust of wind, Bai Sheng swung his knife and pointed at Yoko, the smile that was always on his face disappeared, and a strong sense of deterrence was about to burst out: “Return Shen Zhuo.”

Yoko sneered: “Oh? What are you going to do, cut me down with the hostage?”

Chen Miao was extremely shocked and furious: “Let go of Senior Sister Shui!!”

“Ah, by the way, the witch is immortal, you will only kill the female coroner who is possessed by her.” Yoko raised her eyebrows and looked at Bai Sheng mockingly, “Why, don’t you dare? An S-rank like you is still afraid of killing people, right?”

Italdo Witch narrowed her eyes dangerously, raised and lowered her fingers hanging by her side, as if hesitating.

“…I don’t care what you do with the hostages.” After a while, Bai Sheng said in a low voice, “But Shen Zhuo is the only human being among the top ten inspectors. If he dies at the hands of the evolutionaries, the precarious peace between humans and us will be destroyed. Once it happens, the consequences will be unimaginable.”

Bai Sheng raised the tip of the knife and pointed at Yoko over the hostage.

“Tell me where Shen Zhuo is, or I will give you a very painful death, and there will not be a whole bone left in your body.”

The room fell into a stalemate, and everyone stood still and did not dare to move.

Yoko stared at Bai Sheng closely, the corners of her eyes tightened to the extreme.

She had heard of Bai Sheng a long time ago, and many people thought that he was smiling all day long, always unserious, had a cheerful personality, a wealthy second generation rich man—but she knows that there is no S-rank in this world who is good-tempered, the difference is only in the degree of willingness to act.

This person named Bai Sheng has a cold and meticulous mind, with an abnormal desire to control. Even in the S class, he is still a very troublesome existence.

She hates such people. He obviously has the ability to lead the evolutionary to go further, but he ran to mingle with lowly humans like ants.

“Can you kill me?” Yoko sneered, and suddenly stabbed the witch’s right rib with a knife: “Then you come and try!”

Chen Miao flew over: “Stop!”

Trigger warning starts now.

At the same moment.

A trace of ferocity clearly flashed across Bai Sheng’s brows, he threw the long knife with one hand, and clasped his knuckles with one hand.

Accompanied by this movement, an invisible force bounded Yoko. Before her dagger could stab, her whole arm was twisted and deformed, amidst the sound of bone shattering, it was twisted into twists!

Clatter! The dagger fell to the ground.

The severe pain made Yoko’s mind go blank, and she let go of the hostage with a shake like an electric shock. Before the witch could take the opportunity to take revenge, Bai Sheng grabbed her and pushed her back to Chen Miao.

Immediately afterwards, crazy vines erupted from around Yoko’s body, but they couldn’t touch the corner of Bai Sheng’s clothes at all. In the blink of an eye, his cold figure enveloped Yoko from top to bottom, and he picked her up by the throat: “—Where is Shen Zhuo?”

Yoko’s right arm was completely twisted into a spiral, and she couldn’t help shaking. She gritted her teeth and raised the corner of her mouth: “You’re willing to be a dog for human beings? You traitors…”

Bai Sheng lifted two fingers in the air, click!

Yoko’s left arm automatically rotated twice, countless bone spurs pierced through the skin, bursting with blood and flesh!

“There are 206 bones in an adult’s body, and now you have 150 bones left, which I can slowly twist one by one.”

Bai Sheng lowered his head, looked down at Yoko’s bloodshot eyes, and said in a clear and cruel tone, “Tell me where Shen Zhuo is, maybe you still have time to leave a whole body.”

“…” Yoko stared at him soaked in blood, and suddenly gritted her teeth and laughed: “Come on, try to see if you can kill me. It’s like Neanderthals were replaced by Homo sapiens 30 million years ago. Instead, the current human beings are also doomed to be extinct now, and someone like you who is willing to be a dog to human beings–”

Bai Sheng didn’t show any joy or anger, and tightened his fingers.

That palm force was terrifying, Yoko’s voice stopped, and the neck bone automatically twisted to the extreme!

That scene was terrifying like a silent movie, her face turned from blue to black and purple, and her cervical spine was broken inch by inch into a snake shape, and her throat bones rubbed against each other in a frightening “sigh” sound, and it was about to be completely broken.

In just a moment.

A crack in space suddenly opened above everyone’s heads, and Noda Shunsuke’s figure flashed silently.

“…You are finished.” Noda Shunsuke stared at Bai Sheng and squeezed out a few words.

Bai Sheng suddenly felt something, and was about to turn around, but it was already too late.

Snap! Noda Shunsuke snapped his fingers.

The black barriers rose from the ground and quickly formed cuboids one by one, like coffins standing up one after another, shutting everyone in instantly!

“Fuck!” “What is this?” “What’s going on?”

Everyone was shocked at the same time, Bai Sheng reacted the fastest, and slapped the barrier hard with his palm, the veins on the back of his hand popped out, but the translucent black “coffin” was unbreakable.

Trigger warning ends.

“Cough! Cough cough cough…” Yoko fell to the ground, was lifted up by her brother, and dragged aside.

“Spatial confinement.” Noda Shunsuke’s Chinese was obviously blunt with an accent, his eyes swept over the people in the black coffins, and then fell on Bai Sheng, mocking without any concealment: “Don’t bother, it can’t be opened from the inside.”

Bang bang bang bang! Chen Miao raised the gun and shot without saying a word, but the black translucent coffin lid did not respond at all, and the bullet couldn’t even go through it!

“…Your sister has endured suffering until now, you are such a man.” Bai Sheng narrowed his eyes: “What about the one surnamed Rong? He didn’t dare to come by himself? Is it because he is disabled or because he doesn’t dare to see people?”

Noda Shunsuke laughed, with a bloodthirsty light in his eyes: “You don’t need Mr. Rong to deal with you.. Do you remember what I said last time?”

He originally had a fierce appearance, but such a smile was full of defiance and provocative: “The next time we meet, it will be your death.”

He suddenly clenched his fist, and his knuckles bulged.

Bai Sheng was in a bad mood for a moment, and saw that following Noda Shunsuke’s action, all the black coffins were compressed rapidly at the same time, and in an instant, everyone present was about to be squeezed into meat paste——
